Figure 1-12. Simplified molecular orbital diagram for the formation of an octahedral ML6 complex in which there are no Tt-bonding interactions between metal and ligand. The labels on the molecular orbitals refer to their symmetries. Notice the central region may be equated to the crystal field splitting of the d orbitals.

Hgurc 10. Molecular-orbital diagram for the oxidation of Mn(II) by 02. An outer-sphere process is n >t plausible when Mn(II) is in perfect octahedral symmetry as in Mn(H20)jj+. 02 and OH bound in Mn(ll) will result in Mn(ll) oxidation. Note the similarity of the a and n systems to those of I IglllC s.
